[00:00:00] Taxi (Live 1975 Version) - Harry Chapin

[00:00:13] Written by：Jac Holzman

[00:00:15] It was raining hard in 'Frisco

[00:00:24] I needed one more fare to make my night

[00:00:28] A lady up ahead waved to flag me down

[00:00:32] She got in at the light

[00:00:37] Oh where you going to

[00:00:40] My lady blue

[00:00:42] It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain

[00:00:48] She just looked out the window

[00:00:51] She said sixteen

[00:00:52] Parkside

[00:00:53] Lane

[00:01:04] Something about her was familiar

[00:01:08] I could swear I'd seen her face before

[00:01:12] But she said

[00:01:13] I'm sure you're mistaken

[00:01:16] And she didn't say anything more

[00:01:21] It took a while but she looked in the mirror

[00:01:25] And she glanced at the license for my name

[00:01:30] A smile seemed to come to her slowly

[00:01:33] It was a sad smile

[00:01:35] Just the same

[00:01:39] And she said

[00:01:41] How are you Harry

[00:01:43] I said how are you Sue

[00:01:47] Through the too many miles

[00:01:49] And the too little smiles

[00:01:51] I still

[00:01:54] Remember you

[00:02:12] It was somewhere

[00:02:14] In a fairy tale

[00:02:17] I used to take her home in my car

[00:02:21] We learned about love in the back of the dodge

[00:02:24] The lesson hadn't gone too far

[00:02:30] You see she was gonna be an actress

[00:02:35] And I was gonna learn to fly

[00:02:39] She took off to find the footlights

[00:02:58] Oh I've got

[00:03:00] Something inside me

[00:03:03] To drive a princess blind

[00:03:06] There's a wild man wizard

[00:03:09] He's hiding in me

[00:03:12] Illuminating my mind

[00:03:17] Oh I've got

[00:03:19] Something inside me

[00:03:21] But it's not what my life's about

[00:03:25] 'Cause I've been

[00:03:27] Letting

[00:03:28] My outside tide me

[00:03:30] Over 'till my time

[00:03:33] Runs out

[00:03:34] Runs out

[00:03:51] Baby's so high that she's skying

[00:03:58] She's flying

[00:04:01] Afraid to fall

[00:04:06] I'll tell you why baby's crying

[00:04:13] 'Cause she's dying

[00:04:18] Aren't we all

[00:04:30] There was not much

[00:04:32] More for us to talk about

[00:04:34] Whatever we had once was gone

[00:04:38] So I turned my cab into the driveway

[00:04:42] Past the gate and the fine trimmed lawns

[00:04:48] And she said

[00:04:49] We must get together

[00:04:52] But I knew it'd never be arranged

[00:04:56] And she handed me twenty dollars

[00:04:58] For a two fifty fare

[00:05:00] She said

[00:05:01] Harry

[00:05:02] Keep the change

[00:05:06] Well another man might have been angry

[00:05:10] And another man might have been hurt

[00:05:14] But another man never would have let her go

[00:05:19] I stashed the bill in my shirt

[00:05:24] And she walked

[00:05:25] Away in silence

[00:05:28] It's strange

[00:05:30] How you never know

[00:05:33] But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for

[00:05:36] Such a long

[00:05:39] Long time ago

[00:05:44] You see

[00:05:45] She was gonna be

[00:05:46] An actress

[00:05:48] And I was gonna learn to fly

[00:05:53] She took off to find the footlights

[00:05:56] After fall from the sky

[00:06:02] And here

[00:06:03] She's acting happy

[00:06:06] Inside her handsome home

[00:06:10] And me

[00:06:11] I'm flying in my taxi

[00:06:14] Taking tips

[00:06:16] And getting stoned

[00:06:20] I go flying

[00:06:24] So high

[00:06:28] When I'm stoned
